Fun-Filled Day Set For Shanklin Regatta

Shanklin is set to host its 169th regatta this Thursday (11).

There will be a host of activities throughout the day on Shanklin Esplanade as part of the entertainment - which concludes with a fireworks finale at around 9/9.30pm.

During the day, there will be beach games and competitions, regatta queen, live music, a bar, bbq and other entertainment.

A spokesperson for Shanklin Regatta said:

"On Thursday, Shanklin will be celebrating its 169th Regatta!

"We must recognise the committee members and local businesses. In particular, the current dedicated committee members, who give up their time for free, to bring such a great event to Shanklin shores.

"The event has been and is supported by locals, as it is a free day of great entertainment and fun, and of course, not forgetting our visitors to the Island, staying here in Shanklin and beyond."
